POD: San Diego Padres -127 over Chicago White Sox (Cahill/Covey) 7:10 PM ET #979
Trevor Cahill, an automatic bet-against pitcher in seasons past, is using his kinda curveball/knuckle thing to great effect this season, gaining impressive wiff rate and SO with it. But he's still allowing lots of hard contact and he is the same guy when it comes to those occasional control issues and lots of flyballs and HR allowed, so some bad starts are coming - but probably not tonight as the Pale Horse is MLB's worst team vs RH pitching (24% SO and a 67 wRC+)...Also, Las Medias Blancas just sent yet another bullpen guy to the DL (along with Geo Soto, and Narvaez is sitting today too) and shortstop Tim Anderson is out of town. Not to mention their starter tonight sucks and they've been losing games like crazy, especially on Saturdays.
